Wandsworth Youth Well-being Group

Summary of service

We are delighted to have been awarded funding from the Mayor’s Young Londoners Fund to establish a new weekly Well-being Group for young disabled people aged 14-21 in Wandsworth. Young people will have the opportunity to engage in sports, arts and community activities, as well as skill-building workshops.

The project is based on the Five Steps to Well-being model developed by the NHS: connect; be active; keep learning; give to others; and be mindful.

Young people attending will also access accredited volunteer training so that they can help deliver the groups and support their peers.

How does the service work? The groups will run once every week on weekday evenings.
